'The literary equivalent of a great session.' Felicity Cloake'A brilliant hymn to the holy sainted pub' Marina O'LoughlinWould Queen Victoria have been good value over a pint? Where can you find the most northerly pub in the UK? What is good pub etiquette and do you follow it?This isn’t just a book full of Britain’s best pubs, although rest assured, we have plenty of them. Rather, this is a book that is as much for the pub as about the pub – a collection of ale-sodden stories from every corner of the UK, from the country’s classiest pub urinals, to the Wetherspoons inside a service station just off the M40.With tales and trivia from Lanarkshire to the Lizard, this is a love letter to the great British pub, in all its faded and eccentric glory.Compiled by The Fence, contributors include Tom Parker Bowles, Charlotte Ivers, William Hanson, Jimmy Mcintosh, John Banville and Katy Hessel.
